Any other lo hate diaper changes and getting dressed

My dd will be a year on March 2nd and she HATES diaper changes and getting dressed!!!! Poop diapers are the worst, when she keeps trying to turn over and crawl away!!! I need to tie her down!! Getting dressed is bad too, she throws a fit and we have a full meltdown!! Is this just a phase or not? What can I do to make it better for both of us?? TIA

YES!!! I have the sweetest, happiest, most mellow baby... unless I am changing her diaper, getting her dressed or undressed. During those moments, she can throw a tantrum that would put a 2 year old to shame!

I have found that if I change her diaper while she's on my lap, she is less wiggly, but I have no tricks for the dressing part.

She will be one on March 7.

For a long time we've had DD wave/point/say Hi to the animals in the wall above her changing table (wall decals & artwork). We play singing games that make her stay on her back, like patty-cake or we'll say clap-clap-clap or wave to Mama! We also always have a different toy or little book for her to play with during diaper changes. All this REALLY helps! Otherwise we dress her in stages, on the changing table & if she's wiggly we finish in a few minutes after she's playing in the floor. We might get pull on diapers soon.
